Scar Tissue ?

[barrybdayton]

Does injections cause scar tissue, which might cause problems later on with penile implant ?

Experiences differ, of course, but the day after or even later in the same day that I inject, I can't even see where it happened, and I've been injecting Trimix for over a year and a half now. Your accidental spelling in the heading might indicate the state of mind of most of us before we ever tried injecting. Now that I've experienced the benefits of something that will create an erection that will last through an orgasm and beyond, I would be "scared" not to inject. Best wishes.

Heh, my tissue was scared the first few times I injected, but that was just fear of the unknown. He's no longer scared, and actually looks forward to it.

Sorry about the typo.....and thank you for your replys....but what I'm worried about scar tissue building up doing the injections....I have not used them yet, but I guess that's the next thing doc will suggest for me to do....and I can not see myself doing that to....I do not like needles of any kind...

According to what I have read, scar tissue becomes a problem in less than 10 percent of those using injections.

My uro confirms that scarring is rare, and that if it does occur, it usually shows up pretty quickly. Hence I went back for a penile exam after 90 days of injections and then again 90 days later and then again 180 days later. Now I'm on a 1 year "review" schedule.

Was it worth the risk for me? You bet!
